20th ANNIVERSARY RE- UNION. |
On the 2nd October
1998 our class held a reunion to commemorate our 20th anniversary
of finishing our secondary education at St. Aloysius. This was an occasion
that required a great deal of preparation due to the fact that as time
goes by people move allot and several of us a working overseas.
With the help of Joe Naudi
Montaldo, Tonio Darmanin and myself we succeeded in in contacting over
ninety past students, and as can be expected the evening was a great success.
The evening commenced with a mass held at the College Chapel mass concelebrated by Fr Wirth, Fr Marcello Ghirlando, and Fr Gordon Refalo the last two being fellow students, after a reception was held at the new sports complex in the outer ground.
The atmosphere was that of everyone trying to catch up on past friendships, and obviously some usual pranks, as expected.
Finally through generosity of all present we were able to make three generous, one towards the sports complex, the other to the Holy Family Home for the elderly in Naxxar and finally a donation IBIC an association for brain injured children.
This was a memorable evening
for everyone who attended.

On the occasion of the 25th Anniversary a reunion was held on the 5th December 2003 at Villa Marie Therese at St Julians, the evening turned out to be an evening to remember with a turnout of around 70 people.The reception commenced at around 8.00pm and all those that attended had a good time catching on old times and updating what is happening with their lives today. This year's reunion had a special meaning for all of us, with the presence of Manuel Longo, unfortinutally Manuel had a severe stroke that left him paralised through out most of his body, we were honoured to have him with us as his ditermination to to overcome his severe disability was an insperation to all present. A collective effort was made in order to assist Manuel circum part of his disability and arrangements were made to purchase a device that will allow him to communicate. A request for donations was made and the outcome was very promising, infact the equipment was ordered and will be delivered in tha near future together with a motorised chair that was purchased by the hospital, a heartful thank you to ALL.
At this point I must thank Tonio Darmanin and Joe Naudi Montaldo for their collective effort to make this evening possible. One must appreciate that to organise an event like this takes time and perseverience considering that 25 years passed and everyone moves around according to job necessities.
I hope that this home page will allow us to keep in touch and any future events will be made known directly or on the page itself.
